In like manner. when gloves are cast

By means of it one need never be found

The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1887-09-29
Another Franoo--German War.

The French are maddened to
frenzy by the continual outrages
upon the German frontier and war
is imminent. Although it is small
event in itself, yet it is construed to
mean aggressive hostility upon the
part of the Germans. France will
never rest until she fights Germany
again. The last incident occurred
as follows:
On Saturday morning party of
Eve sportsmen and four heaters
we're following a path on French
territory, seven yards from the
frontier, when a person standing
behind clump of trees on the Ger
man side, eighty yards from the
frontier, fired three shots at them.
The first bullet did not hit any one,
but the second killed one Of the
heaters named Brignon and the
third severely wounded gentleman
named Wagner, a pupil at the Sau-
muir cavalry school. The German
officials declare that d German sol
dier named Kaufman, who was de
tailed to assist the forest guards in
preventing poaching, FREQ the shots
Kaufman affirms that he shouted
three times for the party to halt be-
fore firing at them. He believed
that they were on German terrific
ry. The sportsmen declare that
they heard nothing.
